Chapter 351: Chapter 346: The Unexpected Attack
"We win! We win!"
In the gorgeous young lady's boudoir, Asuna stood up from her seat and waved her boyfriend's arm vigorously.
Now Asuna is really happy for her idol. As a fan who has liked Nanayo's movies since "Kara no Kyoukai", except for "Goblin Slayer" which she was unable to watch due to rating issues, she has watched almost all of Nanayo's movies.
Only the most loyal fans can understand the joy of seeing their idol receive the highest honor.
Especially those die-hard fans who have been following their idols from the very beginning. It is because they have been with their idols all the way that they know more clearly what kind of hardships, efforts and struggles their idols have gone through to get to where they are today!
"Yes, it is really something to be happy about."
Kazutani was also very happy to see his girlfriend so happy.
Although he is not as obsessed as Asuna, he will be happy if his favorite work can be honored.
Not to mention that this happy mood is contagious.
But what Kazutani didn't expect was that the extremely excited Asuna actually hugged him.
"Asuna..."
Boo.
Asuna kissed Kazutani on the cheek, which caught Kazutani off guard.
Immediately afterwards, Kazutani was filled with ecstasy.
[That director named Nanaya Kiryu is really my lucky star. I wonder if that Shiori Kaede will be jealous of me after he finds out.]
"A-choo!"
In a rental apartment in Tokyo, Shiori Kaede rubbed his nose with his fingers unwillingly.
"Damn, am I wearing too little?"
But soon, Shiori Kaede put his unhappiness behind him. He clenched his right hand into a fist excitedly and kept hammering the armrest of the computer chair.
He did not stop this self-harming behavior until his right hand began to hurt.
"Hahaha, I knew that old thief Kiryu would win!"
Shiori Kaede ignored his right hand and quickly expressed his opinion on 2ch.
"That's right, Fate is the strongest!"
Many netizens who are fans of Kiryu Nanaya like Shiori Kaede also responded.
Is there anything more gratifying than having your favorite work and director recognized tonight?
"Wow…"
"Senior, you are the best director!"
"Congratulations, Nanaya."
"Brother Nanaya, I praise you on behalf of my sister!"
The moment Ryuichi Hanai announced the list of winners, warm applause broke out in the award ceremony hall of the Pamir International Pavilion.
There was only one exception, and that was Emiya Kiritsugu.
When he heard the words "Kiryu Nanaya", Kiritsugu threw the tablecloth in front of him to the ground.
Crash.
The cups on the table were all over the floor. Except for Airi who grabbed her cup before Kiritsugu made his move, all the cups of other people at the table were touched.
But even so, Kiritsugu had no intention of apologizing to others. He stared at the award ceremony stage and made a sound of grinding his teeth.
If he could do it, Kiritsugu would have liked to fly around the earth in the opposite direction like Superman to turn back time and let Hanai Ryuichi pour the words he had just said back into his mouth.
But everything became a foregone conclusion, and the result that he, as Lin Bao's boss, least wanted to see occurred.
From the time Washimine started working with Dentsu until now, everything he has done, he hopes that Lin Bao can maintain his efforts as the boss of the Japanese film industry.
With the Japanese Oscar for Best Director confirmed, everything became a joke.
Kiritsugu felt the veins on his forehead throbbing. Ever since Yukari won the Best Supporting Actress award, the anger that had been accumulating in him began to burn fiercely.
The fire in his heart was so hot that it spread directly to his face.
The originally livid complexion began to turn red rapidly, and even the makeup foundation could not cover it up.
Anger, resentment, jealousy, etc., all negative human emotions seemed to be reflected on Kiritsugu's face at this moment.
Kiritsugu now looked as if he was possessed by the evil of this world, and had completely lost the expression that a normal person should have.
Even though he was still sitting in the public place of the awards ceremony hall, Kiritsugu no longer cared about his manners. He was just trying hard to keep his butt in the chair.
Compared to the emotional Kiritsugu, the others present were very calm. Many people had already guessed the result when they saw Hanai Ryuichi.
"There's really no suspense at all! Director Kiryu is really amazing."
The director of "Sanchome", Takashi Yamazaki, was also clapping his hands.
If someone else won the award, he would definitely be unwilling to accept it. After all, he didn't think his movie was worse than others, and with Lin Bao's blessing, there was no way he could lose.
But Yamazaki Takashi felt that losing to Nanaya was natural.
Isn't this a normal result?
"No way, his advantage is too great."
Yukisada Isao, who was sitting at another table next to Yamazaki Takashi, said to Yoshinaga Sayuri.
"Nana Kiryu's commercial achievements are already on par with those of the world's top directors. With such achievements, the Japan Film Academy must recognize his achievements in these areas."
Sayuri Yoshinaga nodded. As a veteran who had attended the first Japanese Academy Awards in 1978, she knew that the result was no surprise at all.
What was the original intention of establishing the Japanese Oscars?
It was because the popularity of television led to the shrinkage of the film industry. In order to expand the influence of movies, Shiro Kido, a senior of Shochiku at that time, initiated and produced the Japanese Oscars based on the American Oscars.
In other words, the original intention of the Japanese Oscars was to expand the influence of Japanese films.
What artistry, what Japan's four major operators, these are all things that came later.
Nanaya Kiryu was able to become a world-class director and also grossed $750 million at the global box office.
This achievement would be something worth bragging about no matter which other director was in charge.
This is a feat that even Kurosawa Akira and Miyazaki Hayao have not been able to accomplish.
If the Japanese Film Academy does not recognize such a director, it will not be as simple as the outside world questioning the fairness and justice that the academy claims.
It is impossible for the college itself to agree to it.
"It's okay."
Machiko Nasu, the screenwriter of "North Year Zero", comforted her director, saying, "We can continue next year. No matter how good Nanaya Kiryu is, his commercial film style is his absolute weakness."
"That's hard to say."
Sayuri Yoshinaga was not so optimistic. She looked at Nanaya who was hugging her comrades one by one at the dining table of the Fate crew, and shook her head slightly.
"If Fate could achieve the same success as Harry Potter..."
Sayuri Yoshinaga let out a slight sigh.
At this moment, it would be a lie to say that Nanaya was not excited.
Even though he is a commercial director, it doesn't mean he doesn't like winning awards.
However, compared to winning awards, commercial performance is the highest priority for Nanaya's films.
Right next to Nanaya, Shion's face was also full of pride. She was proud of Nanaya!
All along, Shion felt that finding Nanaya was the best thing she had ever done.
In just a few seconds, all of Japan's eyes were focused on Nanaya!
Nanaya did not rush to go on stage. He first turned around and hugged everyone in the Fate crew.
This took some time, but Nanaya believed that his teacher could definitely wait.
At this time, in the award ceremony hall, all tKazutaniests stood up one after another and gave Nanaya the warmest applause.
This is the glory that Nanaya deserves.
"Congratulations."
Rin took the initiative to hug her man.
"Thank you, but forget about the EVA reference."
"Ah, you figured it out." Lin stuck out his tongue.
"Nanaye, your dream has come true."
Sakura hugged her ex-boyfriend tightly.
Unlike others, who can only see Nanaya's glorious side after "Kara no Kyoukai".
Only his ex-girlfriend, who had been with him since high school, knew what efforts Nanaya had made to succeed.
In Sakura's eyes, Nanaya is a person who has set a goal since childhood and has been working hard for it.
In order to become a director, Nanaya has been preparing for this since his student days.
Other people watch movies just to relax, but Nanaya always carries a notebook with him to take notes when watching a movie, and he always writes down several full pages of notes each time.
When other people watch "Titanic", they will be moved by the unforgettable love and marvel at the special effects that are beyond the era.
But when Sakura watched this movie with Nanaya, she read the desire and yearning in his eyes.
Therefore, in Sakura's opinion, Nanaya is now just receiving the praise as it should be!
Nanaya had already walked around the table celebrating with the members of the Fate crew.
When he returned to his original seat and prepared to go on stage to receive the award...
The biggest surprise happened. Shion, who had hugged Nanaya politely at the beginning, hugged Nanaya again. Then she pulled Nanaya around for half a circle and suddenly kissed him hard on the lips.
"Congratulations, Nanaya."
Just like a hunter who has been lying in ambush for a long time and then smiles knowingly when he sees his prey, Shion smiled like a fox at this time.
It can be said that Shion's kiss was planned for a long time. From the beginning, she had been paying attention to the angle of the live camera.
She found that all the cameras subconsciously avoided Kiritsugu's place so as not to capture the embarrassing side of Lin Bao's boss.
So a bold plan took shape in Shion's mind. When Nanaya returned to his original position, she boldly hugged Nanaya and turned to the blind spot of the camera lens and kissed him.
From the perspective of the audience and most people at the scene, Shion just hugged Nanaya again, but the people in the Fate crew saw Shion's actions very clearly.
Shion didn't finish after the kiss, she looked at the others provocatively with a look of contempt and licked her lips with her tongue.
"It tastes good. Really exciting."
Pah. *N
The girls at the table suddenly felt as if a nerve in their brain had suddenly snapped.
